January Mid Month Mash Up

This week was our Mid-Month Mash Up, a check-in with our favorite local journalists and bloggers. We got their views on the recent local and national news headlines that caught their eye.
Host Richard Steele was joined by:
• Becky Vevea, WBEZ Education Reporter
• La Risa Lynch, Freelance Journalist
But this month, we also heard about how gun violence impacted one man and his North Kenwood community in a very unexpected way.
For that conversation, we were joined by:
Isaac Monroe, North Kenwood resident
And Brian Cassella, a Tribune Photojournalist who has been documenting communities the “Next Day” (after an instance of gun violence).
The Barber Shop Show airs live on Fridays at Noon on 91.1FM. You can also stream live at vocalo.org. In addition, the show rebroadcasts on Saturdays at 9am on 91.1FM and on Sundays at 3pm on WBEZ 91.5FM
